Unique experience
The Individually Structured Major (formerly known as Track II) at Alfred University is a unique educational experience that offers students the opportunity and challenge to design and direct their own academic major. It is an independent, self-initiated academic program in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences that is individualized, flexible, yet carefully structured and supervised.

Open curriculum
In contrast to most traditional majors that are designed by the faculty and have pre-established course requirements, the Individually Structured Major offers an open curriculum that allows students to work with faculty advisors to select courses and alternative learning experiences to meet personal educational goals and career objectives.

Successful outcomes
Students find the personal and individualized attention that comes from working with an interdisciplinary three-member Faculty Advisory Board adds significantly to the quality and value of their overall educational experience. Employers and graduate schools have been impressed by the initiative, distinctiveness, and experience of graduates of this program.
